Of course it is not bog and wise to give these players stick directly, I doubt a couple even read it. However from Wolves fans Marc took a great lot of stick and dealt with it perfectly.

A new era, you can not imagine the difference twitter has brought to the ways players interact and it does make for better dialogue. However some of it has to be said is likely to be done by PR agencies.
